One Night Only

One Night Only Lyrics

[Intro]
I'll give you one night only
For your eyes only
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
Like an eagle in the sky, you can't control it
There's a magic in my eyes
And I can't stop it burning down
On the edge of tonight
'Cause tomorrow, we'll be owning the world
All my scars, I've got to show them
There's a fire in my heart
And I can't stop it burning down
On the edge of tonight
'Cause tomorrow, we'll be owning the world

[Pre-Chorus]
You know like pure, white gold

[Chorus]
I'll give you one night only
For your eyes only
If entertainment is what you want
Then honey, I'm the best
I know that we're together
For all your pleasure
Forever, forever, forever
This is how we burn

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I wanna ride into the night, supersonic
Like a dragon in the sky, riding on it
Screaming loud at the edge of tonight
'Cause tomorrow, we'll be owning the world
On the run, I'm in the moonlight
There's a bullet in the gun
And I'm gonna shoot it above the clouds
At the edge of tonight
'Cause tomorrow, we'll be ruling the world

[Pre-Chorus]
You know like pure, white gold

[Chorus]
I'll give you one night only
For your eyes only
If entertainment is what you want
Then honey, I'm the best
I know that we're together
For all your pleasure
Forever, forever, forever
This is how we burn

[Post-Chorus]
This is how we burn
This is how we burn
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
I just wanna riseI just wanna turn and face the strange
Sometimes the fear in us
Turns to the best of us
I just wanna have some fun
I just wanna throw that one, two punch
Sometimes the tear in us
Turns to the best of us

[Chorus]
I'll give you one night only
For your eyes only
If entertainment is what you want
Then honey, I'm the best
I'll give you one night only
For your eyes only
If entertainment is what you want
Then honey, I'm the best
I know that we're together
For all your pleasure
Forever, forever, forever
This is how we burn

[Post-Chorus]
This is how we burn
This is how we burn

About “One Night Only”

The Struts officially released One Night Only on July 14th, 2017 as the first single from their second album.

This song was first announced on June 20th, 2017 via The Struts’ YouTube channel:

“This song is mainly about the relationship between a performer and his/her audience,” says frontman Luke Spiller. “After touring throughout the United States, we’ve developed a strong relationship with our audience and started to feel more responsibility to them—mainly to give a great show every night.

“The song has many theatrical moments, making the arrangement one of the most ambitious songs we’ve done. It’s definitely over the top and larger than life, but after experiencing our audience and how they react to our music, I think it’s even more fitting.”

Glam revivalists The Struts get their swagger on with effervescent new song One Night Only The Struts continue their inexorable march towards world domination with new single One Night Only. It's the first track to be released from the band's as-yet-untitled upcoming second album, the follow-up to 2016 reissue of the band's 2014 debut, Everybody Wants.
